Did you run mkfs.xfs on this device right after it was
partitioned? mkfs.xfs is only going to use as much as
the block layer says it can, so if the kernels in-core
partition table was out of whack, mkfs will be told an
out-of-date device size.
If this may be the case, try rebooting and then see if
mkfs.xfs sees the updated device size. Also xfs_info /
"mkfs.xfs -fN" output would be useful here, along with
the contents of /proc/partitions.
cheers.
